Ilja Kantorovitch

Welcome to my personal page! My name is Ilja Kantorovitch, and I did my PhD at Universitat Pompeu Fabra in Barcelona.

I am now a Climate Risk Model Development at UBS, in Zurich. I am working on improving climate credit risk models across IB and Lombard.

My research focused on information frictions in financial markets and the macroeconomy. I am interested in understanding how information production and belief formation influence outcomes in financial markets and, subsequently, in the macroeconomy. 

I was a Postdoctoral Researcher Luisa Lambertini's Chair of International Finance at EPFL in Lausanne, Switzerland.

Research Interests:

Macroeconomics, Finance, and Information Economics
